There was an element of luck in the goal, yes he caught it well and they look good when they go in, but he hit the inside of the post, and it could have gone anywhere !!!

Such a cliche thing in football and never once understood it.. same as when someone hits the post and they say 'How unlucky' is it really unlucky hitting something that you have sort of aimed for?

Exactly Hoilett was unlucky with his penalty, he aimed a few inches lower, but it hit the bar and came out, Grealish aimed for the goal from distance with the ball dropping out of the sky, and luckily he caught it right and it hit the inside of the post and went in !!!

It wasn't a question of putting bodies on the line as there was no one within 15 yards of him which is absolutely scandalous. Why oh why didn't we have some one sitting on the edge of the D when the original cross came in to pick up the loose ball? Should imagine Warnock wasnt happy.

I've seen footage taken from behind the goal.
You left 2 players up which must have been intentional. Warnock and the defenders must have known the otherwise they would have called 1, if not both back.
Very brave or possibly stupid for an away side defending a dangerous set piece with 4 minutes left.

Would you say a boxer was lucky that he threw a punch and it connected? Your talking shit mate, these guys put the years in perfecting their talents to score goals like this
